Dr. Charles Freedman, MD is a board-certified pediatrician at Kaiser Permanente Vandever Medical Offices in San Diego's Allied Gardens, located at 4405 Vandever Avenue in the 92120 ZIP code. He graduated from New York University in 1974 and completed his pediatric residency at the University of California San Diego Medical Center, giving him direct training roots in the San Diego medical system. NPI 1528127149 registers him under pediatric taxonomy, and pediatric dental referrals from his practice connect to offices across the College Area, where Pediatric Dentistry of San Diego in Grantville provides sedation dentistry and early orthodontic evaluation for the young patients he follows longitudinally. His board certification through the American Board of Pediatrics confirms subspecialty competency in the full range of childhood conditions from neonatal screening through adolescent medicine. The Vandever Medical Offices campus sits adjacent to the larger Kaiser Permanente Zion Medical Center, connected by the same Allied Gardens medical corridor between Zion Avenue and Vandever Avenue south of Interstate 8. Dr. Freedman's clinical scope covers well-child visits, immunization administration, management of childhood asthma and eczema, acute infection workups, and developmental milestone tracking from infancy through the teenage years. Vision screening protocols in his practice coordinate with optometric referrals, and KDT Optometry in the College Area handles pediatric eye exams that catch refractive errors and amblyopia before they affect school performance. With nearly 50 years of pediatric experience and a residency pedigree rooted at UC San Diego, his presence at the Vandever campus anchors continuity of care for families across multiple generations in the 92120 corridor.
